Reptiles waking up.

Mark Barber from Conservation Ecology Research Team Swansea (CERTS) sent me these very nice shots of Adder and Common Lizard taken at Oxwich on the 17th. This is the first report I've heard of for any reptiles this year, though not totally unexpected given the yesterday's glorious weather. Last year the first sighting I heard of was on the 3rd March.

We would be very interested to know of any other early reptile sightings
